April 4, 20215 yr Well lockdown is lifted and trialing has resumed. Was supposed to go to my first trial today but went to start the bike before loading up and I got one fire then nothing, no spark at all. Started investigating and removed the flywheel to find the sleeve and magnets inside the wheel loose. I can turn the magnets inside the flywheel. Has anyone seen this before?? Looks like its all just glued together and it's all separated but can I just glue it all back together? It's a 2010 with the leonelli twin map system. How do I set them in the right place for timing?
April 4, 20215 yr I've glued Suzuki magnets back in using Araldite (not the quick setting stuff). You should be able to see where the magnets were positioned, just takes a close look and a bit of detective work.
April 5, 20215 yr Author That's what I was thinking. Got some araldite today but I'm going to ring Steve from Bradford ignitions tomorrow to check before I glue them back in. I'm bothered about the positioning as how does the stator know where to fire at??
April 6, 20215 yr I'm not familiar with the Sherco motor, but most other brands have a separate pick up coil, usually external to the flywheel for the ignition timing. Bye, Peter B.
